Autoimmune Disease-Associated Variants of Extracellular Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidase 1 Induce Altered Innate Immune Responses by Human Immune Cells
1 Jan 2015
Abstract excerpt
Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) gene polymorphisms have been linked to several autoimmune diseases; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying these associations are not well understood. Recently, we demonstrated that ERAP1 regulates key aspects of the innate immune response. Previous studies show ERAP1 to be endoplasmic reticulum-localized and secreted during inflammation. Herein, we investigate...
